New Waringarri Chairperson & Deputy for 2015 plus changes to Rule Book

Kununurra Waringarri Aboriginal Corporation held their Annual General Meeting today Monday 26 October 2015 - seeing Peter Brown nominated and accepting the position of Chairperson. Desley Rogers nominating and accepting the role of Deputy. Both of these positions are for two years.
All seven Directors were up for reelection this year, as last year the Corporation was unable to hold an AGM after two attempts due to a lack of people for a quorum. This year saw long-standing Chair Ben Ward, Dolly Thompson, Agnes Armstrong, Desley Rogers, Jennifer Wilson, Margaret Moore and Peter Brown needing to step down. After the nominations and acceptances, the new board is now made up of returning Directors Peter Brown (Chair, above left), Desley Rogers (Deputy, above right), Margaret Moore and Jennifer Wilson, and new Directors Ju Ju Wilson and Sharon Benning.We wish the Directors all the best for the next year. A big thank you to our outgoing directors for all the time and effort they have put into Waringarri over the last many years.

There was also a General Meeting held prior to the AGM, where all the members voted to change the percentage of members needed for a quorum in the Rule Book, this will now be 5% of members plus a quorum of Directors.
